this post is 50% a thought experiment for a funny short story im writing,and 50% personally serious.

Is it possible to abstain from harming plants,which are alive,and subsist enterily on powder of minerals and rocks?I know that some people manage to thrive on fruit that has fallen naturally to the ground,but lets that aside for a moment.
Would I die of starvation if I try a mineral diet? will my throat get punctured due to the powder?
Is it possible to live ONLY on bodybuilding supplements ,vitamins tablets and dew water?

I don't think so, since the body needs proteins and lipids in addition to atomic/light molecular nutrients. Maybe if you had one of those vats meant to simulate abiogenesis where you synthesize amino acids, but even then that's a stretch and would take impractical energy input to even produce a single meal's worth.

Plants have proteins too, just not quite the same type or concentration as meat. The point is that you have to be eating something that contains complex protein molecules since you body can't make them all itself from simple minerals.

there are edible fats synthesized from mineral oil, but have fun getting any vitamins, essential amino acids or tastyness

Although we can make our own fats from sugars, I think it's good to have some fat in our food, because of its effects on the intestine especially. Experiments on an isolated loop of intestine, measuring the nutrients entering the bloodstream, showed that relatively simplified mixtures of nutrients were poorly digested. Fat, protein, sugars, and minerals, in combination, activated the intestine, increasing the digestion of all of them, when they were present at the same time. If the fats are mostly saturated, as in butter, coconut oil, or beef or lamb fat, roughly a third of the calories is good, but the ideal proportion probably depends on the specific foods and the person's level of activity. Increasing either fat or sugar can have some specific therapeutic effects, but when more information becomes available about the composition of particular fruits, I suspect that the ideal balance of nutrients will lean toward the sugars, supported by ketoacids and short-chain saturated fats. The polyunsaturated fatty acids, which break down into toxic fragments and free radicals and prostaglandin-like chemicals, are--along with bacterial toxins produced in the intestine--the source of the main inflammatory and degenerative problems. Sugar and the minerals in fruits are fairly effective in keeping free fatty acids from being released from our tissues, and the fats we synthesize from them are saturated, and aren't likely to be stored as excess fat, because they don't suppress metabolism (as polyunsaturated fats and some amino acids do). The minerals of fruits and milk contribute to metabolic activation, and prevention of free-radical damage.
